These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 64: Fishman Priest
I didn’t dare let my guard down here, so I sent a few of the Sahuagins that I had tamed to go forward to scout this area.
Or I would have if not for the fact that they already seemed like they knew what this place was.
"A temple?" I asked in a confused voice when I slowly understood what the Sahuagins were trying to say with their crude drawings.
The Sahuagins nodded in affirmation when they heard this.
I turned to look at the Fishmen and Mermen as well, but it seemed that all of them had the same information as the Sahuagin.
Though I had no idea what this temple was for.
After thinking about it, I decided to send the Sahuagins forward still to see if they could lure out whatever was inside of this temple.
Since there was this temple, I was certain that there must be something good here. It should be one of the Elite Monsters of this dungeon that was inside of this temple.
The loot from the Elite Monsters was always worth it.
It was just that…
When the Sahuagins approached the temple that they mentioned before, it seemed that there were Fishmen that came out to stop them. The Fishmen pointed their tridents at the Sahuagin, as if they wouldn’t allow them to get any closer.
It was as if there was some kind of discrimination between the Fishmen and Sahuagins, even with how similar they looked to each other.
Since the Sahuagins couldn’t approach and were even chased away, I sent the Fishmen forward this time.
When the Fishmen approached, they still weren’t allowed to enter the temple though they were treated more kindly than the Sahuagins.
It was interesting to see that there was this kind of discrimination between monsters.
Even though they looked almost exactly the same, the Fishmen actually treated the Sahuagins as lesser beings…
But that was for later.
The Fishmen seemed like they were talking to the Fishmen that were guarding the temple when the Fishmen stopped them. It seemed that there was some kind of society inside of this dungeon with the way that they interacted with each other.
Eventually, the Fishmen that were guarding the temple allowed the Fishmen that I sent to enter the temple.
It seemed that what they said had convinced these Fishmen guards to allow them to enter.

I couldn’t help slightly knitting my brows since I had no idea what the Fishmen I sent were doing inside of that temple. I had only given them a simple task of drawing out the Elite Monster that was inside of the temple, but I had no idea what they would actually do.
After all, they were out of sight during this time.
The hypnosis wasn’t something that was omnipotent, there were ways to break through the Echo Bat’s hypnosis.
But in the end, it seemed that I had been worried for nothing.
"Boom!"
There was this large explosion that rang out before the front of the temple suddenly collapsed. It didn’t collapse inward as if there was something that destroyed it from the inside, but rather it collapsed outward as if it had been hit with some kind of large force.
After the wall was shattered, there were some Fishmen that ran through and some Fishmen that were thrown through the walls.
The moment that I saw this, I knew exactly what these Fishmen were.
They were the ones that I had sent into the temple to find the Elite Monster.
The fact that they were running out now and were even being thrown must mean that they had found what they were looking for.
It didn’t take long for a Fishman that was bigger than the rest to come out of the temple.
This Fishman wasn’t just bigger than the other Fishmen, it was also wearing clothes that were different. The other Fishmen just wore some simple clothes, but this one was completely wrapped from head to toe.
The clothes that it wore made this Fishman seem like some kind of priest.
No, it wasn’t just some kind of priest, it was a real priest.
A Fishman Priest that was holding a proper staff.
The other eye catching thing about this Fishman Priest was the fact that there was a bright red stain on its clothes.
There was only one thing that this bright red stain could be.
It was the blood of the Fishman Priest.
It seemed that the Fishmen that I sent in were quite bold that they even used this method to draw the Fishman Priest out.
As soon as the Fishman Priest appeared, the Fishmen guards that had been stunned made their move as they realized what happened.
However, they didn’t get a chance to do anything as they suddenly froze.
There were dazed looks that appeared on their faces as they froze before they suddenly came back to their senses. When they came back to their senses, they pointed their spears forward again.
Only this time, they were pointing the spears at the Fishman Priest.
The Fishman Priest couldn’t help stopping when it saw that its guards were now pointing their weapons at it.
After a moment of silence, the Fishman Priest raised its staff to point at them before shouting something. It was just that the Fishmen guards didn’t seem to care about what the Fishman Priest was saying to them.
In the end, the Fishman Priest started chanting something in a deep voice and there was a light that appeared around its staff.
When it finished, the light shot out at the Fishmen guards that were around it.
Half of them suddenly froze as if they were affected by something, while the other half just kept pointing their spears at the Fishman Priest.
When the light faded, the ones that froze turned back around and started fighting with the Fishmen guards that had betrayed the Fishman Priest.
It seemed that the spell that the Fishman Priest used had somehow broken the Echo Bat’s hypnosis.
